Redwood City, CA, July 3, 2018 – B-Stock, the world’s leading auction platform for returned, excess, and other liquidation inventory, has been named to the “Supply & Demand Chain Executive 100” list for a fourth year in a row. The recognition highlights 100 supply chain projects between clients and solution providers that have resulted in supply chain excellence. B-Stock was selected based on the successful execution and ongoing operation of a branded B2B liquidation channel for a Fortune 500 home improvement retailer’s returned appliances. By leveraging B-Stock’s marketplace platform, demand generation programs, and auction expertise, the retailer has been able to drive thousands of new secondary market buyers to its marketplace each month; this has boosted competition and pricing for the inventory. In particular, by adjusting auction lot size to meet demand, more buyers were able to participate in the bidding resulting in a 42% quarter-over-quarter increase in recovery.

“Earning a spot on the SDCE 100 list for a fourth consecutive year reflects the commitment we have to provide our clients with exceptional solutions for their returned, excess and other liquidation inventory,” said Howard Rosenberg, CEO of B-Stock. “This project in particular reinforces the importance of auction strategy and knowing how to adjust auction lots to attract the right buyers in order to generate substantially higher recovery.”

B-Stock was built on the idea that technology and analytics could revolutionize the way organizations sell their returned, excess, and other liquidation inventory into the secondary market. Since inception, B-Stock has enabled hundreds of companies, including nine of the top 10 U.S. retailers, to recover 30%+ more on this inventory.

The 2018 Supply & Demand Chain Executive 100 list is comprised of supply chain solution and service providers that have helped their clients achieve supply chain excellence, including measurable gains in ROI through cost-cutting and increased efficiency within any function of the end-to-end supply chain.
